The film and media industries have undergone a dramatic paradigm shift in the last decade, as music has become an indispensable part of media content. That creates opportunities, while opening up future markets for composers and producers.

Our low-residency programs are aimed at composers, producers, sound and media artists, musicians and musicologists looking for careers in music supporting film, games, TV, and new linear or interactive media. The curricula combine practical training with theoretical knowledge and aesthetics, focusing on advanced music composition and production for the media, sound & acoustics, and recording arts, in addition to business, managerial, admininistrative, and legal aspects pertaining to the always-changing music industry.
